Going steady… not really

My courtship with my weight (see I didn’t say battle!) has been such a see-saw ride. It’s up, then it’s down, then it’s  up again.. well guess what? I’m trying and that’s all there is to it. SURELY you didn’t expect anything more? I promised you last month that I’d try to eat healthy and stay off the booze. I’ve adhered to it.. within limits. It’s the summer and the temptations of creamy Kawartha Lakes  Ice cream on a scorching  day and an ice cold Steam Whistle on the rooftop whilst bbq-ing are all too familiar to everyone. I’ve given into these indulgences,  every relationship needs a bit of give and take right? See.. I’m all about the giving (hah!). Dang! Just remembered I ate TWO LARGE smores in 1000 Islands this past weekend.. err.. I blame it on the stars. City girl gets excited when she sees a bazillion stars.

So it’s not surprising that despite my diligent routine of getting  to Curves atleast  three times a week (four on good weeks!) I’ve gained inches for the most part. However, I think I’m doing okay  because my body fat percentage seems to be climbing down. Hey!  Gotta look at the  positives right? Now if only this crazy heat would melt my inches instead of my ice cream. My crown is still hanging up there for the competition to be  crowned Queen… couple more days till they reveal the winner;)

Goal for the next  month is to stay away from sweets and the booze for most of the week (indulge on weekends) and to eat snacks  in between  the meals. Yes I know! Healthy ones ofcourse.  I’ll keep the bag of chips hidden. Oh and if you’re worried.. I still fit into my white summer pants. Phew! If that  changes we’ll be in  real trouble!
